Arriving at the Arafah, you must wait for the sun to rise at the highest position, then Imam will give Khuthbah. Follow with your Dhuhr and Asr prayers, either by shortening or combining.

The reason to keep Khuthbah short and recite the prayers is such that pilgrims will have ample of time for waqoof.

Your Waqoof will begin with rising and praying to Allah. Your hands should be raised, with face on the side of Qiblah and then proceed with duaa. Your time must be dedicated in making duaa as much as you can, with a provision of taking breaks, if you ever feel tired.

Masjid Namrah is within the boundary of Waqoof area, so care must be taken once you are inside the Masjid.

Hajj is of no value, if Waqoof of Arafah is not performed. Your entire time should be spent in making prayers.

You are supposed to continue Waqoof until the sun sets, followed with you must leave Arafah to reach for Muzdalifah.

The time limit is from mid of the night before the Day of Sacrifice till the sunset of another day. Missing Rami means that you are not permitted to do until Zawaal on the next day. You also must stop Talbiyah, once you begin Rami.

Rami of Jamrat al-Aqabah on the 10th Zhul-hijjah

Rami begins by throwing seven pebbles and reciting the name with each throw. The pebbles must be hurled in the basin near the pillar. Once you have completed the Rami, you must leave immediately.

Tawaf al-Ifadah

Tawaf al-Ifadah is just like Tawaf of Umrah, without covering the right shoulder and ramal is also not done in Tawaf.

Tawaf al-Ifadah and Saee are considered as pillars, which makes Hajj incomplete without it.

After performing both, pilgrims must leave the state of Ihraam. From here on, everything is permissible.

You should return to Mina and spend a night of Tashreeq, followed by Rami of Jamarat.

11th and 12th Zhul-hijjah | 1st and 2nd Day of Tashreeq

You must spend two nights of Tashreeq in Mina. All three Jamarat must be performed in these two days. Rami begins with smallest Jamarah and ends with the large one. It is a strict rule to follow.

Throwing pebbles on the first Jamarah should be followed with a little walk and facing Qiblah to make duaa by raising the hands, as much as you can. The same process goes with the second Jamarah, with an exception of the last Jamarah.

Rami of Jamarat on the days of Tashreeq

Hajj gets completed by Rami on the 12thZhul-hijjah (2nd day of Tashreeq). From here on, you have the choice of leaving before the sunset or make an overnight stay to perform Rami on the 3rd day of Tashreeq.
